DEAR POSTMASTER,
DISCUSSION CORNER # 02
THE COMMENTS RECEIVED FROM THE VISITORS OF THIS BLOG IS ANALYSED BELOW FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE POSTMASTER CADRE
Sincere work attempted to create awareness among the postmasters. Hats off to this website
POST MASTER CADRE WAS CREATED HASTILY WITHOUT PROPER UNDERSTANDING AND VISION AND WITHOUT CREATING RULES PERFECTLY. THIS IS THE ROUTE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. YOU CANNOT SEE EACH PROBLEM SEPERATELY. IT IS BETTER TO ABOLISH THAT CADRE AND MERGE IT WITH LSG/HSGII/HSGI AFTER CADRE RESTRUCTURAING BECAUSE THERE IS NO NEED TO HAVE SEPARATE CADRE OF POST MASTER. IT WAS CREATED ONLY TO DEVIDE THE POSTAL EMPLOYEES.
After copmletion of more than four years, HSG-I recruitment rules have not been finalised where as within less than 12 months PM Grade Recruitment rules have been framed and posting in the cadre of Grade-I & II have been done.The only object was to debarr the qualified officials from Adhoc HSG-I posts with grade pay of Rs.4600-.No any other reason would be there because of their quality.
After framing of HSG-I Recruitment Rules, fresh options will be invited from newly promoted HSG-I officials(the juniors to the PM Grade-II officials in the equivalent grade) to fill up the PM Gr-III posts.If any vacancy will be still there (the chances are very few), it will be filled up as per Col. 12 of respective rect't rules. We should be given chance of withdrawal of option from PM Grade because PM Grade-III posts have not been filled up through the initial constitution even after completion of more than 14 months. Endless waiting is clear injustice.-M K Sharma PM Grade-II Baloda Bazar(CG)493332.
DEAR MR.Y NAGABHUSHANAM,
I AM THANKFUL FOR YOUR VALUABLE COMMENTS ON MY BLOG :
I WISH TO PUT THE FOLLOWING POINTS IN THIS DISCUSSION CORNER BEFORE COMING TO THE CONCLUSION TO ABOLISH THE CADRE AND MERGE IT WITH THE GENERAL LINE.
1. POSTMASTER CADRE IS NOT CREATED IN HASTLY MANNER THIS HAS BEEN CREATED ON THROUGH STUDY AND OBSERVATION FROM THE HIGH LEVEL MANAGEMENT IN THE INDIAPOST. THE LETTER FROM THE THEN SECRETARY POST IS SELF EXPLANATORY FOR YOUR AND OTHER VIEWERS REFERENCE THE LINK OF THE LETTER IS GIVEN BELOW:
THE DRAW BACK OF THE CREATED CADRE AT PRESENT IS:
SOME INFLUENCED PEOPLE WITH MAJORITY EMPLOYEES WITH THEM WHO CAN STAND STILL THE DEPARTMENTAL WORK PUT PRESSURE ON THE DTE TO ISSUE SOME CLARIFICATORY ORDERS AGAINST THE POSTMASTER CADRE OFFICIAL’S PROSPECTS AGAINST THE BASE RECRUITMENT RULES.
THOSE ORDERS ARE ALSO ISSUED BECAUSE THERE WILL NOT BE ANY STRONG VOICE ARISE FORM THE POSTMASTERS, AS THEY ARE CONCENTRATING DEEPLY ON THE DEPARTMENTAL WORK AND THEY ARE SCATTERED.
THE SO CALLED MAJORITY GROUP ARE ONLY CONCENTRATING ON THE NUMBER OF OFFICIALS ON THEIR SIDE TO SHOW THEIR MAJORITY AND NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSTMATER CADRE OFFICIALS AND TREATING THEM AS REBELLION FROM THEIR GROUP AND SAYING WHO SAID TO SIT IN THE POSTMASTER CADRE EXAMS WHEN WE ARE SAYING NO TO THAT....THEN YOU DEAL WITH THE RELATED GREIVANCES OF THAT CADRE.
FIRST OF ALL, WE SHOULD AWARE THAT WE ARE WORKING FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE DEPARTMENT WHICH GIVES US BUTTER AND BREAD AND ALSO TO OUR FAMILY. IF THAT RESPECTABLE DEPARTMENT IS CONDUCTING ONE EXAM TO ONE CADRE WITH DULY FRAMED RULES AND REGULATIONS...IS IT A FAULT ON THAT OFFICIAL WHO WISH TO CLIMB THE LADDER WHICH LEADS A TOP POST WHEN HE IS HAVING THAT MUCH POTENTIAL. IT IS DISCOURAGING THE NEW ASPIRANTS WHO ARE READY TO SHARE THE RESPONSIBLITY TO UPHOLD THE PAST GLORY OF THE DEPARTMENT.
DEPARTMENT NOW FEELS THAT THE LSG/HSGII/HSGI COULD NOT BE FILLED UP EVEN CONDUCTING THE REGULAR TIMELY DPCs. BECAUSE THE SENIOR OFFICIALS ARE ALREADY GETTING THE CREAM OF FINANCIAL UP GRADTION FROM THE MACP AND THE RULES ARE FLEXIBLE AND NOT COMPLELLING THEM TO HOLD THE RESPONSIBLE POST WHEN THEIR TURN COMES THROUGH DPCs. AS THEY ARE DRAWING THE HIGHER PAY WITHOUT HIGHER RESPONSIBLITY THEY WISH TO REMAIN AS CLERICAL STAFF. I CAN SAY DUE TO THAT FACT ONLY THE DIRECTORATE HAS CREATED THIS CADRE TO SHOLDER THE RESPONSIBLITY OF THE HIGHER LEVEL MANAGEMENT WHO WERE STRUGGLING TO COMMUNICATE AND GET THE WORK DONE FROM THE OPERATIVE UNITS.
BUT THE CONCERN IS NOW THE CREATOR IS SILENT ON THE POSTMASTER CADRE AND THE FUTURE OF THE OFFICIALS WHO OPTED WITH FAITH ON THE DEPARTMENT. HENCE THEY FEEL THEY SHOULD BE UNITED AND TAKEUP THEIR GRIEVANCES TO THE HIGHER UP.
THEREFORE DISCOURAGING THOSE POSTMASTERS AND MISGUIDING THE DIRECTORATE WILL GO AGAINST THE EMPLOYEES WHO ARE COME OUT LIKE CREAM OF CREAM FROM AMONG THE OTHER POSTAL ASSISTANTS.
DEAR MR MAHENRA SHARAMA,
THE MATTER DISCUSSED BY YOU IS ONLY RUMOURS AND BASELESS. THERE IS NO ANY CIRCULARS ISSUED BY THE DIRECTORATE ON THE POINTS DISCUSSED BY YOU. HOW A JUNIOR OFFICIAL IN THE GENERAL LINE WILL BE GIVEN PREFERENCE TO HOLD A HIGHER POST WHEN HIS SENIOR IS WORKING IN LOWER POST. IT IS SPREADED OUT BY THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE. THERE IS CLEAR ORDERS THAT IF AN OFFICAL FROM GENERAL LINE WISH TO SWITCH OVER TO THE POSTMASTER CADRE SHOULD SUBMIT HIS OPTION WITHIN THE TIMELINE GIVEN BY THEM. AFTER THAT THEIR OPTION WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. THAT OPTION DATE WAS ALSO EXTENDED FOR THE CONVENIYENCE OF THE OFFICIALS WHO WAITED FOR THE CLARIFICATION. IF ANY OFFICIAL FROM GENERAL LINE WISH TO COME TO THE POSTMASTER CADRE THEY SHOULD SIT FOR THE POSTMASTER GRADE I COMPETITIVE EXAMINATION AND NOT BY THE SIDE AND SHORT CUT WAY THAT YOU ARE FEARING.
THE CLARIFICATORY ORDER ON” KEEP PENDING” TO POST THE GRADE III OFFICALS IS BECAUSE AS PER THE FEDERATIONS URGE THAT AT THAT TIME IN SOME CIRCLE REGULAR DPS WAS NOT HELD SO SOME SENIOR OFFICIALS IN LSG/HSGII/HSGI ARE NOT ABLE TO GIVE THEIR OPTION . ONLY TO ENABLE THEM TO GIVE OPTION TO POSTMASTER CADRE THE DIRECTORATE KEPT PENDINGTHE ORDER TO POST OFFICIALS IN GRADE III. SAYING A WRONG THING THOUSAND TIMES WILL BECOME RIGHT. SO WAIT AND WATCH AND HAVE FAITH ON THE DEPARTMENT. IF ANY INJUSTICE WILL BE APPLIED ON THE POSTMASTER CADRE ON THE FORCE OF THE MAJORITY, THERE ARE CONSTITUTIONAL AND LEAGAL PROVISIONS ARE THERE TO RESCUE THE POSTMASTERS.

I have some queries about the following Points
ReplyDeletePlease guide
1. Who will be the sub appointing authority for the ED Staff working in GRADE - I Offices
2. Who will issue leave orders to the ED Staff working in GRADE - I Offices
3. Who has to maintain the APAR files of Postmen woring in Grade - I offices
Why i am asking these questions, bcz all these are being done by INSPECTOR Cadre.
IF YOUR GRADE I OFFICE IS NOT IDENTIFIED AS UNIT OFFICE THEN THOSE 3 WORK WILL BE DONE BY THE INSPECTOR CADRE ONLY. IF YOUR OFFICE IS IDENTIFIED AS A UNIT OFFICE THEN ONLY AS A GRADE I POSTMASTER YOU COULD BE NOMINATED BY THE SUB APPOINTING AUTHORITY. BUT MANY OF THE UNIT OFFICE POWERS ARE LIFTED AND PLUGGED FROM THE LSG/PM GRADE OFFICES AND THOSE ARE MANAGED BY THE SUB DIVISIONAL HEAD NOWADAYS
DeleteThank u very much for ur reply, How would i know whether my office is unit or not? can do tell!
ReplyDeletecan u supply me a copy of document which show administrative powers/disciplinary powers of postmaster of norm based LSG SO(GRADE - I).
YOU COULD CLARIFY WHETHER YOUR OFFICE IS UNIT OFFICE(OTHERWISE CALLED AS STANDARD LSG OFFICE) FROM YOUR DIVN OFFICE. IF THEY SAID YES ASK ADMINISTRATIVE POWERS ORDERS FROM YOUR DIVN OFFICE ITSELF SINCE I AM NOT HAVING THOSE ADMINISTRATIVE POWERS CLARIFICATION ORDERS
